Im looking for the Fastest burn deck possible. I dont care the slightest about any kind of defense, I just want pure speed. Also no luck of the draw....No no Channel/Fireball shenanigans. Help is greatly appreciated. So far im tossing in a few simple instant burns with Braid of Fire...but thats not good enough for a whole deck.

half the game is luck of the draw bud...but Guttersnipe and dual casting should both be in here.

I was meaning that i didnt want any one shot kills that would have to be in your opening hand to use. Like Channel/Fireball, or Hulk Flash. That kind of thing. Guttersnipe and Dual Casting are great ideas, and are going in. Thanks! Theres another card i wanted to add....but i forgot the name. Its a creature from i THINK the Alara set, that doubles damage. Flame of the Bloodhand or something like that. I've got it, i just havn't found it yet.
Fire Servant! Found it.
i WAS going to put Cure of Bloodletting and/or Furnace of Rath...but im not sure if i should or not. Wanna keep the cost as dead cheap as possible.
theyre too expensive for what you want to do. like I said, play a guttersnipe, next turn, playu dual casting on that guttersnipe, cast pillar of flame, copy it, deal 8 damage. win.
So far, your suggestions have almost doubled the damage output, at only the cost of one turn. I like it so far.
I run a deck similar to this in standard. you should add Pillar of Flame or Searing Spear instead of some of the creature only burn and the burn that hurts you.
I Went with Pillar Of Flame and Kaervek's Torch...The torch because its basically a Fireball that is more expensive to disrupt.
looks good. since youre running mono red, and burn, you might consider replacing 4 mountains with 4 Valakut, the Molten Pinnicle. that could be fun. basically a free late game lightning bolt
Not a bad idea. Ill give that one a try too.
yeah, thats about all I got for ya...good luck. If you get a chance, take a look at my guttersnipe decks :) R/B: http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=416645 R/U: http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=410672
I dont have it on the Vault yet, but i have another deck called Snipe Hunting, heres the list. Snipe Hunting 2 x Blustersquall 1 x Bonfire of the Damned 2 x Brimstone Volley 2 x Cackling Counterpart 2 x Cyclonic Rift 2 x Dissipate 2 x Fog Bank 3 x Goblin Electromancer 4 x Guttersnipe 2 x Incinerate 2 x Increasing Vengeance 8 x Island 7 x Mountain 2 x Pillar of Flame 2 x Rewind 2 x Searing Spear 3 x Snapcaster Mage 4 x Steam Vents 4 x Sulfur Falls 2 x Talrand, Sky Summoner 1 x Tamiyo, the Moon Sage 1 x Temporal Mastery
Dual casting doesn't cause you to "cast" spells the copy is made on the stack and so activated abilities such as sky summoner or guttersnipe don't apply to the copy.
if you want speed and damage: Seething Song Pyretic Ritual Rite of Flame Kiln Fiend Those are all cards you should look into especially with guttersnipe out those cards all work perfectly together... I have a very very very fast red deck that incorporates all of these together, and I even have a turn 1 win combo with it, tho generally it's normally turn 3 when I'd take the win, Check it out if you need any ideas for this deck, it might help ya out... http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=147003
I tried it a few times with Seething Song and all the other mana pumps, but i end up getting a hand full of them and nothing to cast. If i had more X cost cards they would be badass, so maybe ill make another deck with those.
seething song is just nice because i see it for this deck at least as a turn 3 fire servant or guttersnipe and 2 burns ya know? But ya i can see how they dont work everytime, i built my deck more around those kinda cards so i see what your saying, but to me they are just too useful in a burn deck
There's a card from rise of the elderazi called slash or something... It's a 1-2 drop dealing 4 damage. Also, you wouldn't of happened to get an idea from my deck, would you? ;)
Flame Slash is good, but only deals the damage to creatures, so it may not fit well with what he is trying to do here. Lanceofzolong's above comment is correct--dual casting's copy does not count as a copy of the spell itself. The same applies to Storm--and on that note, I would add Grapeshot. It will finish things well. My suggestions are Browbeat (either five to the face or refills your hand, either of which is very beneficial), swapping the Talon for Shrine of Burning Rage, and possibly adding Vexing Devil. Good luck!
Browbeat is an Excellent idea. With all the 1drops, something as simple as drawing can be deadly as shit. Talon of pain...it pains me to admit it, but i think Shrine is better for this deck. Talon of Pain is one of my favorite cards, ive been using it a lot for a very long time. But shrine is cheaper, and in the end i think will do more damage. Thanks for the suggestions :)
Grim lavamancer is a great card only 1 mana. Maybe flamebreak to wipe out enemy creatures. Chain lightning. Burst lightning (same thing as shock except better), fireblast. check out my burn deck http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=135563
